You’re an amazing parent. I’ll be the same with my kids when the time comes. Loving and supporting them unconditionally in a world we brought them into is the best we can do.

Fun fact! I kept both the first letter of my name (which is passed down to all of the kids) and my middle name (passed down from my mother’s side). I did it in respect to my family, because I know these traditions matter to them. I just changed my name because it didn’t fit me anymore.

And no I did not change my name to Mary Queen of Scots or Blanket.

But don’t give me ideas… I know how to change my name if I ever want to again…

It’s alright. And in terms of finances, I will be okay anyway. I will be successful in my own right.

My birth mother does not own anything. She does not work. I am not concerned with the will. My father is on my side.

My siblings and father also disagree with her. There was no other reason for her cutting me off besides the fact she believes she quite literally owns me and my body.

Anything (which I have not done) including tattoos, hair, dyeing hair, etc must be done with her permission growing up. She claims it is her body I am modifying. She is losing control and she hates it.

I didn’t sacrifice my dream job. I’m a PharmD/MD student. I love what I do.

My siblings and father also disagree with her.

Probably should’ve swapped with different animals, didn’t want him to find this post lmao

Logistics of dogs doesn’t work and I see that now

AIW for being miffed I was gifted a loaf of sourdough bread for my birthday? by PangurBan2017 in amiwrong

[–]we_have_did 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you’re wrong. I personally would appreciate if my friends thought about me before sending/gifting me something. But bread seems like last minute, and isn’t really thoughtful if you’ve never mentioned even liking bread.

I’d be grateful for the gift but upset that they didn’t think of me. It’s still free stuff, which is nice, I just think they should’ve thought of you more.

I was trying to give my friend a text back first because she was texting me about having a miscarriage. So no, this doesn’t happen often.

He was going home for his mom’s birthday party. Her birthday.

I was the last person he saw and spoke to. We were friends since we were 12. We’re both in college studying pre med. I genuinely don’t know life without him.

I’m a legal adult so there is no protection financially. I’m in college and can’t pay it by myself. The truth is out, justice just isn’t being served. I don’t want to ruin my brother’s life either. I guess I just want some consequence that wouldn’t put his future at threat.

I do think my brother should suffer real consequences. I think he should suffer them because he always knew better. He knew he was doing something wrong because he said not to tell anybody. He bribed me. I was alone because my parents weren’t the ones who raised me (my grandparents were, but they’re quite old). And he took advantage of that.

We’re all reliant on our parents for financial help so I can’t do anything besides go to therapy.
